Chasewater Railway | Drone Shots & Uncut Timelapse of an Isolated Heritage Railway

A visit to Chasewater Railway organised by Rail Society of University of Birmingham.

#trains #thetrainguy #britishrail

On the 2nd of April 2022, the RailSoc organised a visit to the Chasewater Railway with the members of the club getting to drive the Class 142 Pacer up and down the route.

Videos were taken by multiple members of the Rail Society. I have put together this video using the various shots shared.

The Chasewater Railway is a former colliery railway running round the shores of Chasewater in Staffordshire, England. It is now operated as a heritage railway.

The line is approximately 2 miles (3.2 km) in length, contained entirely within Chasewater Country Park. The route, which forms a horse-shoe shape around the lake, passes through heathland, including a Site of Special Scientific Interest, and passes over a 1⁄4-mile (0.40 km) long causeway.

Prior to preservation, the line was part of the network operated by the NCB to serve the coalfields of the Cannock Chase area. The exchange sidings, where the colliery line connected with the Midland Railway, were situated about 1⁄4 mile (0.40 km) north of the current Brownhills West Station.

Significant changes happened in 2002/2003 caused by the closure of the old Brownhills station, due to the building of the M6 Toll motorway. This led to the rebuilding of Brownhills West with significantly improved facilities, including a new carriage shed and heritage centre, and completion of the Chasetown section of the line (the 'Chasetown Extension Railway' between Chasewater Heaths and Chasetown Church Street).

In 2016 the Railway was awarded The Queens Award for Voluntary Services.

Volunteers are working to establish a 2 ft (610 mm) gauge narrow gauge railway close to the heritage centre.

The Chasewater Railway on 6th July 2014:

I'm ashamed to admit that this was my first visit to this railway despite the fact that it's only 30 minutes from my home in Birmingham at Brownhills on the A5 in Staffordshire.

For full information go to

Being a former Colliery Line this is a light railway operating small 0-6-0 & 0-4-0 'Tankie's' & Diesels. On our visit I was pleased to find that the large 0-6-0 'Nechells No 4' was the workhorse of the day & as such is well featured in my video filmed/edited over two trips which I hope also provides a good overview for those who have yet to pay a visit.
You will get a warm & friendly welcome from everyone here, the fares are nominal & food & refreshments are plentiful. The Museum opposite the station is a must see as it puts many others to shame with it's collection.
Worthy of mention is that the railway is located in a Country Park which offers further 'entertainment' & water sports etc & ideal for youngsters.

At 18+ minutes this is quite long but could easily have been 20 as my problem was what to leave out...... Hope you enjoy it all the same.

bratch steam pumping engine wombourne 2008

Bratch Pumping Station
The Grade 2 listed building* Bratch Pumping Station at Wombourne is one of only 50 remaining steam pumping stations in England. Built in 1895 by Bilston Corporation, it comprises a wonderful Gothic style “fairy castle” pumphouse, within which are two huge vertical triple expansion steam engines. These were used for 65 years to raise pure drinking water from deep boreholes, and pump it to a purpose built reservoir in Wolverhampton.
for more information visit
pumping engine open days are twice a year and a great day out for the family.

'Coal Train Day at Chasewater & New Loco Debut!!

Once again the Chasewater Railway has excelled itself with yet another of it's 'Coal Train Day' events of which I've filmed a fair few in recent years.
I doubt anyone else can do it better than this former colliery line and in such a lovely setting as the Chasewater Country Park just off the main A5 near Brownhills in South Staffordshire.
It's always a pleasure to visit this family friendly railway and meet the dedicated team of volunteers who bring the past to life for all to enjoy.
With a wonderful selection of industrial locomotives and a large fleet of wagons it's always worth a visit not to mention the usual facilities like the cafes, model shop & museum etc.


Oh yes...... and that new arrival to join the fleet!!
I don't have any technical history to hand but 9000 the Hunslet diesel seen in the video only arrived days before this event & so made a very rapid appearance. Apparently, British Nuclear Fuels at Sellafield in Cumbria has upgraded it's internal loco's to new battery electrics (which were trialled at Chasewater) and have kindly donated this now redundant loco to it's new home here at Brownhills. The NCB logo on cabside having been added on arrival and for this event.
